for Bassoon and Cello. Urtext.
**********************************************
Did Mozart intend this work to be a duo for two bass instruments, or (as the simple basso-like manner of the second part suggests) a sonata for bassoon and keyboard instrument?
We will probably never know the answer because the autograph has gone missing. Our edition allows different instrumentation; it not only contains scores for the duo version but also one so it can be performed as a solo bassoon sonata, following the style of the time with a figured bass realization.
And cellists - who are not blessed with many works by Mozart - will appreciate the version of this endearing work for cello and figured bass.
